NBA Refs miss 5% of calls - David Stern

[Junker]

I've seen statistics like this and really I think they're crap. I don't care how many different camera angles you look at, there is no way for certain to tell if an official is 95% correct. It's not like we're calculating batting averages or shooting statistics. There are too many different game situations etc. to give a statistical number to correct calls. More imporantly to me would be whether or not my partners felt I worked a solid game, my assignor felt I worked a solid game, and to a lesser degree that the players and coaches felt I worked a solid game.
